Farmington, NY – December 4, 2024 – Cobblestone Arts Center is thrilled to announce plans for a state-of-the-art 95,000 sq. ft. Wellness and Recreation Center, a transformative project designed to enhance the lives of Farmington residents and the surrounding community.
Set to be built on land adjacent to the current Arts Center, the proposed facility will provide an array of recreational, educational, and wellness services. These plans will be unveiled during a public meeting with the Town of Farmington on Monday, December 9, 2024, at 6:30 PM, and Cobblestone Arts Center warmly encourages community members to attend.
The Wellness and Recreation Center will include:
A state-of-the-art turf building and indoor track for sports and fitness activities.
A pre-school program focused on early childhood enrichment.
Alternative medicine and mental health services to support holistic wellness.
Childcare services to assist local families.
A community library to inspire lifelong learning and foster connection.
"This center represents a bold step toward enhancing the well-being of our community," said Lorene Benson, Executive Director of Cobblestone Arts Center. "We are excited to collaborate with our neighbors and bring this vision to life."
The project has already gained significant momentum. Cobblestone Arts Center has secured a $2 million grant from philanthropist Tom Golisano and has submitted a proposal for an additional $4 million in funding to the Economic Development of New York State. The initiative is also backed by Canandaigua National Bank, underscoring the project’s strong financial foundation.
The December 9th meeting will offer a platform for community members to share feedback on the proposed amenities and suggest additional features they would like to see included. Cobblestone Arts Center is committed to ensuring the project reflects the needs and desires of the community it serves.
